Krewe of Freret, Crescent Canna Launch THC Drink for Mardi Gras Freret Fizz

NEW ORLEANS (press release) – The Krewe of Freret launched Freret Fizz, a new cannabis-infused drink created in partnership with Crescent Canna, the producer of Crescent 9 THC Seltzer.

A drink that elevates festivities and facilitates post-parade recovery, Freret Fizz is made for Mardi Gras. And it’s the first THC beverage crafted in partnership with a Mardi Gras Krewe.

“As a fervent supporter of New Orleans entrepreneurs and tastemakers, the Krewe of Freret is proud to partner with Crescent Canna to craft what could become the Unofficial Hangover Helper of Carnival,” says Krewe of Freret cofounder and captain emeritus Greg Rhoades. “Freret Fizz is an indispensable addition to the carnival experience. Unlike other krewes, which have rebranded existing beers or wines, Krewe of Freret has crafted an original recipe with an award-winning local team.”

Freret Fizz is a beverage that offers partygoers an uplifting and refreshing intoxicant that is healthier than alcohol.

Designed to support revelry and recovery, Freret Fizz contains 5 mg THC and 5 mg CBD. It’s enriched with essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, vitamin B12, iron, potassium, and calcium, as well as a splash of caffeine equivalent to a half-cup of coffee.

“As longtime riders in the Krewe of Freret parade, we jumped at the opportunity to partner with the krewe to release a limited-edition THC beverage for Mardi Gras,” says Joe Gerrity, cofounder and CEO of Crescent Canna. “Freret Fizz will elevate the enjoyment of riders and attendees alike while providing a beneficial boost, making it the perfect addition to your festivities – morning, noon, and night.”

Freret Fizz will be available for Mardi Gras festivities and online at the Crescent Canna website.
